Creating an electronic environment in the workplace

Some of the key constituents of computerization in the biomedical sciences and clinical research are examined. The biomedical basic-science environment of the 1990s is viewed as a scientific 'union', typically spanning the activities of a genetic engineering resources center, a molecular modeling and dynamics laboratory, a visualization and imaging center, a biomedical signals processing laboratory, a computer graphics unit, and a mathematical/biostatistical and artificial intelligence laboratory. Each of these activities and the advanced computational and networking technologies that are the basis of interconnectivity among them are discussed.<
